It would be so cool!

​specially when you are fighting Gurd armys.

Oh, I downloaded a mod for Dawn of War. I wonder if they make up a unit for the Tau.

Techniquely you could just paint guardsmen into tau colors amd play them the same as guardsmen, thats kinda what they are anyway though idk what actual weapons and armo for the auxiliary is supposed to be but until we get that id recommend just using guardsmen it would make for some intresting campaigns or battles

All factions are getting new models with their next codex, though it's probably just going to be a battlesuit or a named character

They should frame the imperium as an oppressive force like the Empire in Star Wars. Maybe show a space marine in passing just to show the fear something like them would evoke from another perspective.

Honestly, that would be brilliant. The audience would be able to have someone to latch onto (and seeing as how the Tau are the most "moral", it would be a much more relatable figure than your average imperium guard or space marine), and would include actual intense stakes, seeing as how they're just a normal dude, but not serving in an army where they're used as meat shields. Also, because the T'au are new to the battlefield, it would allow for new audiences to be introduced to all the big players, like the Imperium or the Orks and Chaos, at the same time our main character is, so no new audience member has to do extra research.

Life in imperial civilized world is far better than become second class citizen in Tau empire

​​@@briantarigan7685hat's one of the things that's well noted: life for average humans who join the Tau is typically much better than for those same humans in an average Imperial society, even as second class citizens. The problem is the Tau don't really understand the danger posed by humanity. The psykers that are being born with increasing regularity or just "activating" halfway through adulthood will draw the attentions of the daemons in the warp. A major part of why humanity's age of technology came to an end is because the species started becoming increasingly psychic and got _noticed_ . Corruption of AI's and humans followed The Imperium at least has some level of control over the psyker problem, even if it's a losing battle. The Tau are just lining themselves up for a warp spawned sucker punch if they take on too many humans

@@moreplease998 i'm talking about life in civilized world, worlds with population range of 15 milliom to 10 billion people with spread out city and most of biosphere intact, life in these worlds are generally good all of this are canon, and being shown in eisenhorn books or some novels lile the infinity and the divine, i would rather live in these worlds that compose majority if imperial worlds rather than the Tau's who literally biologically brainwashed their population And yeah, the psyker shit also being taken into consideration

E. Be born on a Civilized World that isn't being turned into a Hive World. It's self sustaining, not horrifically overpopulated or polluted, and generally decent to live in. The Imperium likes to turn them into Hive Worlds to boost industrial output.

The horrific shit you have to go through almost guarantees that you would be better of dead than trying to become a space marine You would have to go through unimaginable pain and you would probably die trying xD

Probably depends on the book. I just finished listening to the Farsight books on audible and, aside from the parts narrated by the enemy perspective, there was only one non-tau character

The most i remember is the Caiphes Cain novels show alot of human T'au helpers mentioned even ones who had surgically modified thim selves to be able to speak the T'ue language.

Dont remember what book, but I believe it was mention that human and the other species live in different communities separated from each other even if they occupied the same planet. They only really interact with one another if they are call to service by the tau empire.

War of Secrets has a minor story plot dealing with human tau.

Alas, GW writers are too busy making the smurfs win a thousand more battles

They probably do have some sort of secret police, something akin to Inquisition, but run by other Guevesa and much more local on planet to planet basis. They could have like a Psyker Human who is an absolute fanatic to the Greater Good, who could be the leader, directly responding to Ethereals. Using his psyker powers to sniff out other, wild and dangerous psykers and other lackeys of Chaos. Furthermore, the Tau could simply make stuff against Chaos, given technology can interact with Warp (gellar fields, warp drives and many others), they could probably make like Warp sensors they could mount on their patrol drones, any ritual sites or wild psykers blasting their powers could be reported to the Fire Caste and military raid would happen.

​@@mrvex6695 no bro, the Ethereal Caste alrdy decreed to ban any study about immaterium. I read somewhere in the lore, The Tau were trying to reverse Engine imperium warp drive since their conventional Faster than light Travel is the slowest among other Sentient races (the other species that cant travel through warp is Tyranid ). Anyway i forgot the detail but the Earth Caste did suceed in creating a Warp Drive. Being a race with zero psyker of course u know what would happen when the Tau did a test run with this new warp drive space ship... They get lost ..and only returned to Tau space decades later. The crew gone mad and thus the Ethereal caste decided that the warp is no place for the greater good....

@@tarektechmarine8209 True, but Data Slates are frighteningly basic compared to any IRL modern day device. They are incredibly limited. "Flat and rectangular, data-slates are widespread throughout Imperial space. Data-slates are the primary means of storing and reading printed text, picts, schematics and other media such as video or audio recordings. They are cheap and easy to make, and many contain a single media recording, such as text, and can only play that single file. Others can re-record new information or transmit and receive data from other digital devices such as cogitators." But my actual point wasn't about access to computing, but about access to open networking. The Imperium simply does not have an equivalent to the internet. Everything is locally networked through official channels and authorities, more like a digital postal service or feudal messenger relay. If they did have an actual internet it would make China's oppressively censored and locked down internet, look like a freedom of information paradise by comparison. No doubt about it.

Humanity gave up on xenos MORE than 10k years ago, at reason as well. The imperium hates them, eldar while being arrogant are falling into chaos, they also don't like allies. Tau are just naive, the tau even with the tech COULD NOT run the imperium. Tau still can't past FTL properly, imagine thinking they can change a galaxy.

Betrayed the most oppressive regime in all of human history? Listen man, sure there are ideologies and the constant threat of xenos like orks and tyranids but... All the average imperial subject cares about is having something edible on their plate, along decent living standards and future for their children. Things that the Imperium rarely offers for said average subjects.

Betrayed? More like fleeing away from an oppressive regime that views human lives that aren't nobility or transhuman like tools, yeah the human civilians under tau rule are treated like second class citizens but that surely beats being worked to death and then having your body turned into nutrients to feed the rest of the poor sods in the hive city.

The promise of food that isn't recycled corpse starch is far more potent than any corrupting whispers of chaos. "Join the Greater Good. We have cookies."

Their is no way a human with commun sens would choose to willingly live as a random citizen of the imperium rather than being a Gue'vesa.

In the case of humanity in the 40k setting, they really don't deserve anyone's loyalty considering how often humanity gets discarded like trash by it's own government. If saying that makes me a traitor then come and take me Inquisitior.

There are contradictory sources on that lore, but also it's not like most Warhammer players were gonna breed anyway

Joke is on the T'au. They don't even let the firecaste breed until they have done a few years of service lol. Plus depending on the world, the T'au can be VERY hands off. Some worlds they just want the resources and have no interest in actually colonising the planet so will just let the infinate pool of labour (the native humans) just populate and live as they do.
